i need some more options to find a good mixer with effects ,i chose mackie profx12 which is unavailable ,i need similar functions

I have the Mackie VLZ3 (avaiable in 8, 12 and 14) and it is very nice Super quiet and very solid...and a good price for what you get I think.

Mackie CFX12 is the one to get..I think they may be back ordered now..A very popular, dependable board that handles any solution..

I used one for almost 7 years ..trouble free, and worked in any venue..

I would give this a look http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MG124cx/

Personally, I think the compressors are a VERY handy addition to the board. Maybe enough to compensate for the lack of a graphic...

Fran,
I agree if you want the built in effects and 9 band eq etc..and want to spend that much $$$.
But if you don't need all that...the VLZ's are a great mixer.

Is this Mackie VLZ's are coming with USB out, which can be used with PC recording software?

These are ANALOG mixers...No USB out
